As one of the first styles of beer actually conceived in the United States, our cream ale is designed to make America’s pastime proud using only American produced malt and corn with classical American hops (Cascade and Willamette). We even use American water (sorry Fiji). No matter what local team you cheer for, this is a perfect accompaniment to the game.

Golden with a medium sized white head that left decent lacing. Tangy, sweet and fruity. Medium finish and body.

16oz can. Pretty much a spot on, true to style Cream Ale. Whereas most breweries just have to add something to it, this nails it...I suppose I wouldn't have minded if it had been a little creamier still. Perhaps the most refreshing and easiest to drink of all styles to me. A keg of this would be awesome! Great beer.

Lemon, biscuit malt, and straw aroma. Hazy pale yellow with large white head. Light sweet-tart lemon-lime, biscuit malt and very mildly bitter straw flavor. Good body. Citrusy.

Pint can. Clear yellow gold pour with a medium white head that has decent retention. The aroma is faint with some salty herbs and indistinct cereal grains. The taste is basic bland grains--there is a touch of citrus but not much else to mention. The palate was indeed full and creamy smooth. Finishes short and dry. Overall: Exceeded my very low expectations. Cream ales are not something I have much experience with so i cant rate to style, only enjoyment, and that was somewhat low.

On tap at Mousetrap. Pours a hazy gold with small white head that lasts. The aroma is cream wheat and corn. Slick body, wheat, dough, light finish, good.

Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a clearish gold with a full two fingers of white, fluffy head. Mineral, pine and citrusy hops on the nose. More of the same on the palate. Easy drinking cream ale.

Pour is a cloudy yellow with a large white head. Aroma is dry bready malt and a car of corn. Flavor is adjuncty but clean with no aftertaste. More like beer for chugging.
